It Was You... Poem by Afzal Shauq

It was you...
The one...
Through the ages anxiously awaited
now makes my heart path clear.
You have always known me best
yet stayed removed from all
even me...

It was you...
The one...
Whose name was to me a surprise
forever in my memory burned.
that possessed my dreams
and haunted my thoughts.

It was you...
The One...
No one else could it be
Oh the truest of friends
just as you are
It was you.
